@npub1qu5…qel2 @npub18dx…q227 I can't find it there. No surprise, Twitter is functionally a shithole these days.
Last night I did see someone post a modified flag in a spaceflight related space I'm in, so I'm making the tenuous assumption that it might be the same one we're talking about:
It has 13 stripes and 36 stars arranged in the pattern of the raptor engines to be installed in version 2 of the super heavy booster being developed in Texas.
I went looking for where it says this is illegal and found out it's actually probably not. Any historical flag may be flown. I'm not clear if that means it has to have exactly the same star arrangement or just any quantity of stars that has been used officially.

@npub1683…f0qg cars live a surprisingly long time. Just this summer I upgraded from my 2000 civic to a 2010 Prius. The civic still runs, maybe not great anymore, but with a little elbow grease it's still a very easy car to keep running.

@npub1683…f0qg ah, so looking out 5-10 years into a future build out. Yes, you're correct, should be building with faster charging in mind.
But I can already picture a decades old EV rocking up to a charger and sitting for 45 minutes while societal conventions already expect cars to be in and out in 5-10 minutes. Haha!

@npub1683…f0qg the types of amenities/distractions at gas stations are loosely coupled in how long they take to complete with how long it takes a pump to fill a car.
Electric cars, with their 6x as long charging stops, will be better suited with other types of attractions surrounding the chargers.
Obviously car washes don't factor into this calculus, but things like a convenience store - no one spends half an hour in a convenience store.
Maybe a sit down restaurant? Or a theater that only shows single episodes of TV shows? Idk, I'm just spitballing bad ideas here.
